Rocket Cars

14 ct, stitched over 1

Stitch these speed machines for the car enthusiasts in your life - perfect for children and adults alike! Rev up someone's birthday with these fantastic car designs. It's always nice to find a collection of charts that are suitable for boys and these bright and wacky cars with bold paintjobs, big wheels and flames, do just the job. Worked in whole stitches and fractionals, these designs use a vibrant colour palette with shades of red, yellow, blue, green and purple to show off the cars' gleaming body work. You can add va-va-voom to your design with DMC's Light Effects glow in the dark threads, creating a fun striped pattern. Once the completed chart is framed and gifted, it will look super cool sitting on a bedside table, glowing at night. Make the gift extra special by personalising the car's number plate with the name of the receiver or add a message to the greetings card, using the simple backstitch ABC. These designs will be great to make for any hard-to-stitch-for chap you know, whatever the occasion.
